Electronics Filled, Arduino Powered Room
Using sensors, an old PC, LCD screen, lots of sensors and few X10 home automation parts, one man built a mini-house in his backyard packed full of electronics. The house also features a flickering LED fireplace and a Disneyland-like magic mirror. Although the house was built for two girls, the circuitry used is fantastic and you can learn plenty from the tutorial.
Update – You can now buy the software and hardware needed for the project at the DIY Magic Mirror website.

“Although the house was built for two girls, the circuitry used is fantastic”
I don’t understand this sentence. Are things built for girls usually crap?

@Cori – The point is that the project’s clients are children and thus they don’t require cutting edge technology. Nonetheless, the creator went all out on the project.
